Phosphoric Acid, do you spray on then hose off or leave it on and paint over it?

Mate of mine is a hwy cop and they dont have radar detector detectors. So if its not obvious you have it. Then no one will know. Also pretty sure there passive receivers anyway. Your copper mate is full of it, I had Whistler conferscated about 15 years ago on the Pacific Hwy when doing interstate &...

If the max power of 134hp is at 4000rpm then you're producing 236 Nm there. The graph shows 600 at that point.

But if you can work out the rpm you can get it more accurate than that.

The graph shows 600 LB not sure what that is in Nm's

KiwiBacon wrote:So how many rpm does the km/h on that plot equate to?

Not sure as I changed Diff Ratios from 3.9 to 4.3s soon after that Dyno run so it needs to get back on the Dyno to see what it's doing now.

Hear's a copy of mine after a couple of runs to reset the boost. running 13psi 3" Dump & exhaust with fuel adjustment. http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e68/DG1818/Dyno42GU.jpg WOW mine peeked at 3400 rpm. What was your exhaust temps like with 13psi. Exhaust temps were good thats why we di...

i made it for i couldn't find anything suitable.

daves adaptor appears to be standard though.

Mine came from ARB, Maybe cheaper to buy the lot direct from Donaldson.

Thanks fellas, yes Donaldson pre cleaner, mine is a TD42 so I would be after a 10" one too I guess. DavePatrol do you have any pics of your's fitted? Cheers. http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e68/DG1818/Patrol%20Photos/Photo0585.jpg http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e68/DG1818/Patrol%20Photos/...

Yeah, I originally had an 8" one and it sounded like it was sucking air through a straw, so changed to the 10" one. Don't know if the 4 Pot would suck as hard as the 6 pot ones.

Are you talking about a Donaldson pre-cleaner, If so I use a 10" one on my 4.2 GU but a 3lt would only need a 7" one.

If your in QLD or WA just make sure it's not an ex mines vehicle as they're treated like sh!t.

Yeah I have a set in a GU patrol & my young bloke put a set in a Suzuki with no problems If your near Narrellan go and have a talk to Graham who owns the company.

My 2002 4.2 GU had 3.9s but I changed them to 4.3s when I fitted bigger tires

J.C. Diesel at Narrellan

Give JC Diesel at Narellan a ring 4646 1770

Pity your so far away, We have both front & rear complete (drum to drum ) diffs siting here out of a 96 coily.

hay wideaz what r u doing with a pic of my car as your display pic?? lol

I think you will find they are different

Try disconnecting the battery for about 20 mins to reset the computer. You do know that you need to be under 3/4 on the main tank?
Cheers Dave..

When I changed from 265's to 285's I noticed a differance so I swapped diff ratios from 3.9 to 4.3, Best thing I ever done more responsive & more touque That was a 4.2 GU Waggon.

Ingersoll Rand & Chicago Pneumatic were top brand names in air compressors /air tools. They are rebuildable not frow aways.For what you're getting it's a great price.
Cheers Dave..

i used ones out of a vs commodore on the passengers and rear door just had to drill the hole but now the light comes on whenever i open any door so that might be an option if u cant fined genuine ones, i can get pics if u want to c how i did it.

thanks guys

yer i no about the blinker unit thing, even if thay dont fit inside the bumper it wouldn't be hard to trim it so the holes bigger, but mounting it than will probably be an issue? i want to try make it as neat as possible so it still looks standard ish.

cheers scott

has anyone replaced there original tail lights with LED ones with the standard rear bumper? i keep having problems with mine blowing globes from all the water and mud getting it there all the time, i was thinking if i tock the original lights out and try fitting something like these http://cgi.ebay....

yer them covers are crap and thay dont even tern out the right couler.
i replaced all my instrument panel lights in my sierra with blue leds and there been great, i got them from this sight http://www.brightlightautoparts.com/LED ... lobes.html thay were great to deal with.

cheers scott

you will find that with a 40 mm lift, 2 inch body and some 30 inch muddies you will go further than most bigger trucks, it surprised me how easily i drive some stuff and my dads patrol struggles, like the others have said you will have more trouble and $$ than wat its worth if you go bigger unless y...
